No.  They are --- when using Cygwin 1.7.33 or earlier, because the ACL
-> group permission bit handling wasn't correctly implemented.  Per
POSIX, the group permission bits reflect the sum of all permissions of
secondary user accounts and all groups.  See the same situation on
Linux.

Unfortunately Viewvc pages the output.  See the Page menu at the head of
the web page.
